This vehicle has had an intermittent (for a few years) issue with all of the warning lights (ABS, Stabilitrak, Parking Brake, Steering) coming on when starting. If you tried to drive it, you would have no power steering causing the vehicle difficult to handle. This would not happen every time it was started. We took the car to the local Cadillac dealership and were told nothing was wrong and it was just the system going through the electronic check system and to just not put it in gear until after the lights cleared. That actually did work sometimes. Recently, it came off and would never go off. We took it to a shop that does other work on other vehicles for me. He found that the Electronic Brake Control Module was bad. He tried to source a replacement one but found that it was discontinued with no alternate part. He did find a used one which we are waiting on to be delivered and then installed. My first concern is that if this happened when my wife was driving she could lose control of the vehicle causing an accident. My second concern is how can GM discontinue a known problem (I found multiple forums discussing this issue) part with no replacement. The vehicle is 10 years old with only 75K miles. I have read this has been an issue for quite a few years.
My 2015 Cadillac SRX4 developed an issue with the Electronic Brake Control Module which produced the following dash light warnings, park brake, stabili track and power steering alert. I took it to Thompson Pontiac Cadillac in Springfield Mo. I was notified that the ECBM module was discontinued and they bought a remanufactured part from EBAY. They informed me that the part did not fix all of the issues. I still have a power steering drive with care alert still illuminated. The dealership offered no other options for fixing the problem. I believe this is a very common problem with the Cadillac SRX. I believe that both of these issues should be considered a safety issue. My phone number is [XXX] and my email address is [XXX].

I received a recall # N212340980. The dealership said there is no solution until GM gets parts. My son was driving car and almost had an accident on interstate. I want public knowledge that GM has not come up with the parts and almost killed my son by car going out of control.

I'm writing to you about an incident that took place on May 18, 2019. My husband and I were traveling home in our Cadillac Srx at about 6:00 pm our car suddenly spun out of control as we heard a bang, throwing us across three lanes listening to cars screeching all around us on the NJ turnpike, we then hit into the side of a tractor trailer, pushing us back again across the three lanes until we finally stopped in the far left lane. Our insurance company has come to the conclusion that this was a faulty issue with the vehicle. To be exact it was the rear toe link adjuster lock nut torque. The next day I called my family to tell them what had happened. About two hours later my sister called me back and said 'there is a recall on your vehicle model. It involves the rear suspension.' (bulletin no: 14457C; rear toe link adjuster lock nut torque) she gave me the website where you can enter your VIN # and check to see if the vehicle was part of the recall. Our vehicle was not on the recall list. I checked again and again. I checked my paperwork from when I purchased the vehicle (used but certified, off of a lease) and the carfax. No recall. After having the insurance company inspect the vehicle, they, in fact, stated that the accident was caused by the rear suspension (rear toe link adjuster)
